Michael Kathrens, author of a book about impressive houses in Kansas City from 1885-1938, spoke at a program of the Historic Kansas City Foundation. Fascinating subject but the presentation was great.
Cindy and I took a walking tour of Westport by the Historic Kansas City Foundation. This map of the Santa Fe Trail, Oregon Trail and California Trail is in Pioneer Park at Broadway and Westport Road. The tour was partly to counter redevelopment that could threaten the area's historic character.
